NESA Kick Off

This morning students in grades 3-6 started the morning with a NESA breakfast to kick off state assessment season.  Students had mini cinnamon rolls, fruit, and a drink while listening to some jazzy music.  To help provide some inspirational words, we solicited the help of Kid President, Robby Novak.  If you have never watched a Kid President video, you are really missing out.  He is a 12 year old boy that just wants to make the world a better place.  In fact, often times, he talks about being "AWESOME."  That was the message to students today...to be AWESOME!  The test scores don't really matter.  All that matters is that you do your best and try hard.  There will always be someone who will be faster than you, stronger than you, test better than you, and that is ok.  Test scores don't define you as a person, your actions define you as a person...so be AWESOME!  Oh and it never hurts to dance!
